A noble prince ascends to the thrown
Loved and adored by all his people
Peace and prosperity rain over all the land
But as the years go by
Seasons change
As does his heart
It becomes hard and unforgiving
His veins grow icy and cold
His people are pillaged and slain
But he turns a blind eye
His people cry out for help
But he turns a deaf ear
He no longer cares about their petty needs
He gorges himself on the finest there is while his people suffer
He is his only priority
He does as he will
He sends men off to die while women and children work for his gain
Does he see the pain and sorrow he has brought upon others
Does he see the suffering of those under his command
Does he realize that his actions are tearing apart those who loved him
He is blinded by rage and consumed by hatred
He releases his anger on those who only showed kindness
His furry has destroyed all that which has surrounded him
His life now lay in ruin
His people have abandoned him
His friends are no more
He is cold and alone patiently awaiting the blessing of death
